Über diesen Titel
SECONDARY CONTACT is a psychological suspense novel about what happens when systems quietly outlive the reasons they were created.
When a father discovers that his name has been removed from his daughter’s school emergency contact form—and replaced with a stranger he’s never met—he assumes it’s a clerical error. It isn’t. The name was placed there deliberately, years earlier, as part of an arrangement his wife believed had expired.
As he pushes for answers, he learns that the school isn’t acting alone. A legacy advisement—older than the district’s digital systems—still governs how his family is classified in moments of “failure.” The stranger isn’t a threat. He’s a contingency. And the system that installed him is waking up.
What follows is not a conspiracy, but something quieter and more unsettling: a procedural audit of trust, reachability, and risk. Each attempt to fix the problem only embeds it deeper, until the father himself becomes a variable under review.
Taut, restrained, and unnervingly plausible, SECONDARY CONTACT explores how institutions preserve continuity at the expense of clarity—and what it costs to be labeled unreliable when the stakes are personal.
